Raymond Webb was appointed Executive Director of the Nassau County Bridge Authority in December 2022.

[1] To accommodate the new six-lane span, Nassau County and New York City spent $2.5 million for approach road rights-of-way.

The new Atlantic Beach Bridge, designed by Hardesty & Hanover, opened to traffic on May 10, 1952, at a cost of $9.5 million.

A 1999 audit of the agency by New York State Comptroller Carl McCall found many instances of patronage and mismanagement.

[9] One community leader believes the resistance is not based on costs but because this would necessitate accounting of toll monies.

[12] In late December 2022, the Nassau County Bridge Authority voted to implement E-ZPass; concurrently, it raised tolls for the first time in fifteen years to provide funding for maintenance.

[17] Typically, the toll is $3 (USD) with E-ZPass for vehicles under 5 tons (10,000 lb) in each direction as of December 2023[update].
